You’ll probably find some bias asking in product marketing as it is a more generalist role (and that’s okay)… for me personally it was always about the journey and doing what interested me. Started as Eng, front end then went to product now PMM

My firm’s IT (especially system saving and file locating function) is so bad 😐😞 and they keep doing updates no one asked them for just to mess with the stuff we already got a hang of without doing anything about the issues we actually need fixed. Anyone else in a similar boat? Do you bill the client for the time it takes to fix the IT issue (or IT inefficiency generally, like time taken to find a file in a convoluted system)? Or is that supposed to be our non-billable time?
